Nominated *a United States Senator to

The primary election Tue-aday waa a
rather quiet affair and there waa little
Interest manifested. The total vote cast
In tbe elty waa 1,540 or but little over
one-third of the vote cast at tbe laat
general election. Somehow lt seemed
lmpoeetble to enthuae the voters suf-
flclently te cauee them to so to tbe
potts and record their choice for candidates, although the names of several
local candidates were upon tbe ballots.
The Democrats made a poor showing
of their strength ln the 217 votes cast
by members of tbe party. The fact tbat
the name of but one candidate appeared
upon tbe democratic ticket aa a candidate fair Governor, and one for state
senator Indicated that rivalry for office
dial not exist or that few men tn the
party scented success of a ticket nominated.
Returns Came Slow.
The returns of the election were pro-
vnklngly alow in -coming in. In the elty
the first returns received was at 1:10
p. m. when precinct B of the Third

RUSSIAN STAND
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON. Aug. 11.—The position of the American government in
the < Polish situation waa today before
the world.
Stated briefly the United States
stands as favoring preservation of the
political independence and territorial
Integrity of Poalnd and aa opposing any
dismemberment of Russia. The linee of
this policy were set forth ln a note despatched yesterday by Secretary Colby to
tbe Italian ambassador.
To the end that Poland shall continue
as an autonomous state, the American
government, Secretary Colby declared
in hia note, will follow a policy "directed to the employment of all available
means to render It effectual.'* To safeguard the Interests of the Russian people as distinguished from the .existing
Russian soviet regime, the United
States government through the note declares to tbe allied and associated powers it would regard with satisfaction a
declaration by them of respect for the
territorial integrity and true boundaries of Russia.
The United States, the note asserts,
takes no exception to the efforts to arrange an armistice between Poland and
Russia but for the present at least, tan-
not consent to any plan to divert such
armlstloe negotiations into a general
European conference.
Discussing tbe situation resulting
from the sweep of the soviet armies into Poland, Secretary -Colby takes occasion to reiterate the previously expressed sympathy of the American
government for the Russian people, at
well as the government's previously
announoed decision not to * recognise
the soviet regime which Is characterised as a no***reprea*entatlve government whose only sanction ls brutal
force.
State department officials refused tp
elaborate tn explanation of the pledge/
containasd ln the note to employ "all
available mea-as" to uphold the territorial integrity of Poland.

RUSSIAN STAND
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON. Aug. 11.—The position of the American government in
the < Polish situation waa today before
the world.
Stated briefly the United States
stands as favoring preservation of the
political independence and territorial
Integrity of Poalnd and aa opposing any
dismemberment of Russia. The linee of
this policy were set forth ln a note despatched yesterday by Secretary Colby to
tbe Italian ambassador.
To the end that Poland shall continue
as an autonomous state, the American
government, Secretary Colby declared
in hia note, will follow a policy "directed to the employment of all available
means to render It effectual.'* To safeguard the Interests of the Russian people as distinguished from the .existing
Russian soviet regime, the United
States government through the note declares to tbe allied and associated powers it would regard with satisfaction a
declaration by them of respect for the
territorial integrity and true boundaries of Russia.
The United States, the note asserts,
takes no exception to the efforts to arrange an armistice between Poland and
Russia but for the present at least, tan-
not consent to any plan to divert such
armlstloe negotiations into a general
European conference.
Discussing tbe situation resulting
from the sweep of the soviet armies into Poland, Secretary -Colby takes occasion to reiterate the previously expressed sympathy of the American
government for the Russian people, at
well as the government's previously
announoed decision not to * recognise
the soviet regime which Is characterised as a no***reprea*entatlve government whose only sanction ls brutal
force.
State department officials refused tp
elaborate tn explanation of the pledge/
containasd ln the note to employ "all
available mea-as" to uphold the territorial integrity of Poland.
